Very nice design. Everything is simple and easy to find which I think is very great. The color scheme of blue and yellow is appealing. One thing is that the sign in the header is a bit choppy.

That design it's poor. If you don't know how to get a well designed website, just use wordpress or joomla and buy a theme.


It's because of lame critiques like the one from alopes that makes me leery about posting a site for review. As for the site in question, it displays some of the best use of dynamic html. I particularly like how the images are displayed and the rotating banner on the main page is a nice touch. The site is rich in content, interesting and entertaining. If I were ever planning a trip to Australia, I would definitely return to this site. Good Job!

I agree, this is an excellent site. just one thing - the png transparencies around your header navigation tabs don't work in Internet Explorer 6 - they come out as solid light blue. It's no big deal, but you might want to replace them with gif-s and add an appropriate matte................

Wow, the site looks pretty good, and professional looking also.

I also loved the logo, and the banner on top.

I like the site very much - colourful and informative. I like the different photo at the top of each page.

What strikes me at first is that the home page has a LOT of information on it and is almost too cluttered. Maybe you could put some of the info on a linkable page.

I do like the map but think it is too small - can't read any of the writing.

You have lots of lovely photos but don't have a caption on any of them to say where they are, might be helpful. Same problem on the photos page.

Have you had many 'hits' yet? You certainly deserve to as it is obvious you have put a lot of work into it.

Well done and good luck

The layout looks nice. I like that the header image changes when a visitor clicks on the header menu.

The information on the different locations seems informative. Overall, the site is well done and I wouldn't recommend any major changes.

I like this site alot. The map appears to have been improved or it could be the background color that made it appear that way on the index page. Great site map and explainations of symbols for people who ask how to print :)

Overall very nice job.
